City Incentives
The city is ofering several incentives to help assure the satisfaction of future residents. First, the city understands that state environmental laws have become more restrictive and a minimum of 2 lots may currently be required to help meet current regulations. Only building sites that we believe will perk are being ofered for sale. However, if the site fails to perk, the city will apply the purchase funds toward purchase of an alternate building site selected by the future resident from a list of sites that the city has available at that time.
Secondly, after construction of the residence is complete and an occupancy permit has been obtained from the city, Briarclif will refund one-half of the price of the building site to the original buyer. This refund is not transferable, and will be refunded only to the buyer who purchased the site from the city. This incentive is ofered to: help expedite construction by future residents, and minimize purchase of building sites for short-term speculation.

Building Sites in Briarcliff
Briarclif was subdivided many years ago into lots of approximately ¼ acre each. The city recently combined some of these lots into spacious building sites having 2 - 6 lots each which allows the future residents greater choice in selecting the actual home site. The city has been very selective in acquiring some of the more desirable property for this project, and building sites can be quite attractive due to the hilly, rustic nature of the terrain.
